Demon # 423 (illustrated by Lars Brown)

After the death of The Monk, the Fox vowed revenge against the Onmyoji.

The Fox appeared before her rival, as a beautiful woman who immediately captured his heart.

He visited her house and she invited him to dine with her.

He expressed his love and desire for her, but she said that she could not be with him because he has a house and wife and mistress and even if she gave herself to him he may one day leave her to return to his own house. The Onmyoji promised to “take care of” the house, removing it as an obstacle.

She said that she also would never be able to trust him if she knew that he commanded Tengu and Oni and had in his possession the scrolls that could change her into a bird if she displeased him. To win the heart of this woman the Onmyoji knew that his books and scrolls also had to be destroyed.

This demon is one of the creatures she referenced when talking about the creatures that he could command.

He appears in the P. Craig Russell version of Dream Hunters, in issue # 4, on page 18, in panel 1.
